PJS:
Yes, a double throw with a rifle cartridge and it will overflow.
With a cartridge like a .300 wm, my bet is each round is loaded on a single stage press so the shooter can weigh the charge before dumping it into the case.
For guys who weigh the finished cartridges, you better weigh a bunch of the empty cases and figure out how much variance in weight you are working with. A case like a .300 WM probably has at least five grains of variance in case weight so take that into consideration when you start weighing finished cartridges.
